ABSTRACT This technical paper provides information on provisions, made in the USSR, to facilitate fish migra- tion under conditions of modified river flow resulting from engineering construction and water abstraction. The fish-pass and fish protection structures described utilise a knowledge of the physiology, biology, ecology and behaviour of the migrating species. The principles of their design and operation are elaborated in relation to characteristics of the species of fish concerned. Structures described include sluice fish-passes, hydraulic and mechanical fish-lifts and mobile devices for fish collection and transfer, together with protection and guiding devices used to ensure downstream migration of young fish. — V — CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION ............................................................................................................................. 1 2 FISH

INTRODUCTION This work describes the provisions made in the USSR for fish migrations under conditions of modified river flow resulting from engineering construction and water abstraction. A continuous increase in the use of water resources has accompanied the development of various aspects of the national economies of all industrialised countries. Water resources are being used for agriculture, energy, manufacturing industry, municipal development and water transport. In the USSR, during the last few decades, the environment of most rivers has been changed considerably. Many which support important fisheries have been impounded and contain large dams, and streamflow is now regu- lated. The annual volume of water consumed in the USSR has reached 350 km', and there are about 30 000 devices for abstracting water. At present the total surface area of reservoirs is about 10 million hectares, which is about a quarter of the total area of all natural lakes in the USSR. There are tens of thousands of kilometres of large artificial waterways, including irrigation and shipping canals, and dams regulate the outflow of most medium to large lakes, providing a further regulated surface of some 6 million hectares. Many river basins have been connected by shipping canals and inter-basin water transfer regularly occurs between some catchments. This exploitation of water resources has radically altered the ecological balance of many inland water bodies, and in some cases has led to sharp decreases in stocks of some food fish, e.g. in the basins of the Aral, Azov and Caspian Seas.

(average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. New! Under the Midnight Sun: Sami Lapland, Norway & the Arctic Circle itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: There was something intangibly magical about Lapland. Maybe it was the midnight sun, the endless rugged tundra, or the welcoming nature of the Sami people. All I know is that there was a true sense of Arctic magic everywhere I went, especially when I met an indigenous Sami family on their reindeer farm. As we explored the farm, they introduced me to their way of life and traditions dating back thousands of years. I was saddened to hear that their ancient culture is under threat from two forces: the construction of an Arctic Railway through Sami territory and Sami youth deviating from their traditional lifestyle. You’ll hear about these challenges as well when you meet with a Sami family on their reindeer farm. In the regions I travel to around the world, the stories of the people who live and work there are the most distinct and poignant experiences. You’ll meet with a local educator in Oslo to hear about July 22, 2011—the harrowing terrorist attack on this city—and their personal account of this day.

ABSTRACT Most of the dams built by the Bureau of Reclamation were completed before environmental regulations such as the Clean Water Act, National Environmental Protection Act, or Toxic Substances Control Act existed. The management and operation of dams was instituted under conditions where the ecology of the downstream habitat was unknown and largely ignored. Changing or modifying structures, flow regimes, and land use patterns are some of the efforts being pursued by the Bureau to reconcile or mitigate the effects of impoundment to comply with these environmental policies and to maximize the potential for recreation, fisheries, and water quality in tailwater habitats for the water resource users. The purpose of this report is to provide a reference document intended to aid in the management, compliance, and problem solving processes necessary to accomplish these goals in Bureau tailwater habitats.

    Brown Trout Population Response to Trophy Regulations and Reservoir Discharge in a Large, Southeastern U.S. Tailwater by: David P. Dreves, Jeff R. Ross, and Jarrad T. Kosa Bulletin No. 111 March 2014 BROWN TROUT POPULATION RESPONSE TO TROPHY REGULATIONS AND RESERVOIR DISCHARGE IN A LARGE, SOUTHEASTERN U.S. TAILWATER By David P. Dreves, Jeff R. Ross, Jarrad T. Kosa Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources March 2014 Partially funded by Sport Fish Restoration Funds Sport Fish Restoration Project F-40 “Statewide Fisheries Research” ABSTRACT Reservoir tailwaters can be an important resource for developing quality trout fisheries, especially when managed with special regulations. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a 508 mm minimum length limit and a one-fish-per-day creel limit on improving the size structure of the brown trout Salmo trutta population in the Cumberland River below Lake Cumberland, Kentucky. The purpose of the new regulations, which did not include gear or bait restrictions, was to increase the numbers of quality (381-507 mm total length) and trophy-size (≥ 508 mm total length) brown trout in the 121 km tailwater. A significant increase in brown trout electrofishing catch per unit effort was observed across years for small (< 381 mm), quality, trophy-size trout, and all sizes combined. As brown trout electrofishing and angler catch rates increased over time, no corresponding decrease in growth or condition was observed. Reservoir discharge was positively correlated with warmer water temperatures and lower dissolved oxygen in the tailwater. Growth and condition of brown trout in the tailwater were inversely correlated with an index of discharge from the reservoir.

  • Environment and Political Economy on the North Aral Sea, Kazakhstan
    Sea changes: environment and political economy on the North Aral Sea, Kazakhstan William Wheeler Department of Anthropology Goldsmiths College, University of London Submitted in fulfilment of the requirement of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2016 I, William Wheeler, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. All photographs and maps are, unless otherwise indicated, my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract The Aral Sea regression is globally famous as a devastating ecological disaster, though recently a dam has led to the partial restoration of the North Aral. These ecological changes have overlapped with the collapse of the USSR and resultant political-economic transformations. From ethnographic fieldwork in Aral’sk and fishing villages, and archival research, I argue that the sea’s regression and partial return cannot be analytically separated from political-economic processes of socialism and postsocialism. This study of the entanglements of environmental and political-economic change has, I suggest, implications for anthropological engagements with climate change. Chapter 1 offers narratives of Soviet irrigation policies (which caused the regression) and of the construction of a socialist fishery, arguing that similar political-economic processes drove both. Chapter 2 explores official responses to the regression, especially importing ocean fish for processing in Aral’sk, and sending fishermen to fish elsewhere in Kazakhstan. Chapters 3 and 4 explore how these practices, and their cessation after the collapse of the USSR, shape local understandings of the regression. I thus decentre the environmental disaster narrative.
